“The Senate Budget Committee took another important step towards delivering on the promise of a simpler, fairer and more competitive tax code. For too long, Americans have been put at an economic disadvantage because of a complicated and outdated tax system that pushes jobs and investment overseas, punishes success, and stifles economic growth. The Senate’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, while not perfect, would make America more competitive, provide relief to hardworking taxpayers, and begin a long-term shift away from a rigged economy that favors the well-connected at everyone else’s expense. We applaud the Senate Budget Committee for their support today and urge the rest of the Senate to follow their lead.”
